Challenge your Council Tax band

The Valuation office Agency (VOA) values homes for Council Tax. This includes placing new properties within a Council Tax band and changing bands for properties when necessary. The council uses Council Tax bands to work out your Council Tax bill.

Your property is given a band based on its value on a fixed date (currently based on 1 April 1991 values). To undrestand why your property is in a certain band, please read the VOA’s guidance on how domestic properties are assessed for Council Tax bands

If you have evidence suggesting your band is wrong, you may be able to challenge it. Challenges must be made directly to VOA and you must continue to pay your Council Tax while your challenge is being considered. If you do not make the correct payments then recovery action may be taken against you. To find out more about how to challenge your Council Tax band, please read the VOA’s guidance on challenging your Council Tax band.
